![]() My Suzuki has just come out of warranty so I will be doing the servicing myself from now on. To be honest i was a bit disappointed with the last service back at the beginning of the year as I asked the guy to just service the motor and not touch anything else. When I picked it up he told me that the fuel/water separator in the boat had broken when he removed it. I did not ask for this to be checked and he also broke the bilge pump bracket at the same time. I also discovered out at Anchorite that two of the four spark plug leads were loose. Since the service I have noticed that the pee hole flow was a bit low so recently I dropped the leg off to inspect and found that one of the impeller vanes was pointing the wrong way. Any hoo - this has led me to source a service kit for my engine for next time and they are available locally but I have also found them on Ali Express. My particular one is $130 including impeller kit, anodes, oil filter and all the required gaskets. I just need oils and spark plugs. I’ve decided to go for it so will see what it’s like when it turns up, fingers crossed. |
